Solar Christmas String Lights

Solar powered Christmas string lights in 12m, 22m and 32m, with a stake mounted panel. No power point, no extension lead trailing out a window, no timer to set. They charge through the day and come on at dusk.

Solar earns its place in an Australian December because the days are long. A panel in full sun from about nine to four will run a string comfortably through the evening.

Put the panel where it gets direct sun, not filtered light through a tree. That single decision is the difference between eight hours of light and two.

Runtime drops after a heavily overcast day. That is physics rather than a fault, and it recovers the next clear day.
